OCTOBER 17 DANCE The October 17 student council dance is sponsoring Full Circle, an upscale re-sale shop.  This shop is in need of clothes to provide job training for special needs students in our community.  Any student who brings in a new or gently used coat or fleece will get a raffle ticket and be entered in a drawing to win a great prize.  Drop off will be during advisory or at the dance.
NEW SCHOOL ENTRANCE PROCEDURE Parcells is locked this year during the school day for safety purposes. From 8:30 AM – 3:17 PM (9:00 – 3:17 on Mondays) anyone wishing to enter the building must be ‘buzzed’ into the building. You can do that at three doors: the main front door, the receiving room door, and the 6th grade door off the back parking lot along Sunningdale. At these three doors, you will see a small metallic box mounted on the wall with a small camera screen and a doorbell button.  Press the doorbell button. When you hear a response from someone in the office, please announce your name and reason for your visit and you will be ‘buzzed’ into the building. Please proceed to the office to register.    Students who arrive late to school or who are arriving to school after an appointment will also have to be ‘buzzed’ into the school by following the same procedures. After school is dismissed at 3:17 PM, the receiving room is unlocked allowing access to the school for the afternoon and evening.  Other doors will also be unlocked when events and activities are scheduled for late afternoon and/or evening access.
